Rejected petition 3 more annual Bank Holidays Please

More details

I would like the UK Government to consider the idea of introducing 3 more annual Bank Holidays:

St George's Day - To celebrate the Patron Saint of England

Queen's Official Birthday - To celebrate the Monarchy and all the things the Monarch brings to the UK

Rememberance Day (November 11th) - to commemorate the loss of lives given to secure our freedoms and democracy through the many wars.
